Let me tell you something about this blessing of a woman. From the moment of inquiry she was the most perfect fit for us. I was drawn in just by looking at her picture, but I inqui...
red because of the reviews. Couple after couple stating how amazing she was... I thought it was too good to be true... but, the second I was able to speak to her on the phone I knew the universe was looking out for us. She went above and beyond to make sure we did not have an ounce of stress about our ceremony. Covid took a lot from us, but it blessed us with Joannie. She accommodated multiple zoom calls with my husband and I so we could plan collectively and assured us every step of the way that we were in good hands. She tailored our ceremony to flow with both of our more religious families, and our spiritual own views. She brought so much peace to us when we were feeling anxious at the dress rehearsal. With a simple LOOK, she melted our worry.
If that is not enough, simply saying she is a true light and incredible human is putting it gently. If you are hesitating, just do it and trust you made the right choice. You can take the chance on her. She is worth it.
From the depths of my heart, Joannie, THANK YOU.
Your voice will forever echo in my heart ...
"GO FORTH AND DO GREAT THINGS!"
Love always,

Joannie at Joyous Journey Celebrations is absolutely amazing! From the moment we started communicating she was quick and efficient, yet also very welcoming and compassionate. We we...
re unable to meet in person due to Covid restrictions, yet she video conferenced us to have the opportunity to truly get to know my husband and I. She listened to the exact wishes of our ceremony but she will literally do anything her couples desire. When our plans changed last minute, she did not even hesitate to shift hers as well and accommodate the last minute change. I cannot recommend her enough...she was truly wonderful and we enjoyed getting to know her over these past few months!
Joanne was amazing she felt like she was part of our family. She did exactly what we asked her to do and she made our wedding memorable. We definitely recommend her for anyone who'...

Reverend Joannie is guaranteed to provide you with both a professional and amazing experience. She performed our Covid-19 wedding this past weekend. Even though we weren't able to ...
meet before hand, she teleconferenced us and checked in throughout the planning process, always making herself available to answer our questions and to help us customize our perfect ceremony. She drove over an hour to our location and agreed to come out earlier for a last minute rehearsal. It was more than a job for her; she was personally invested and just amazing to work with from beginning to end. Thank you Joannie!! 5 Stars is not enough. We Strongly Recommend!
Our marriage was a last minute elopement in the time of Covid-19. We did it online via teleconference. Joannie was a consummate professional and a lovely presence to share this...
special moment with. 10/10 would recommend!!
She was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond with our ceremony, we had some unusual requests and she was more then helpful! I would recommend her to everyone!
Thank you for making our day beyond special. There ceremony was short and sweet, as requested, yet had an amazing amount of personal attention and flare. We loved when you asked us...
each a couple of unexpected questions about what we loved most about each other and what one thing we vow above all else to each other. That caught us off-guard but in a way that helped us connect.. it made our day more special. Really an amazing experience.
Joanie is kind, warm and personable. She helped make our day perfect and showed a genuine care for our happiness and preferences. I wouldn’t change a thing.
Joannie is a lifesaver. After our original officiant, Jeff Dorrance cancelled on us, just 4 days before our wedding to attend a football game - Joannie came into our lives and save...
d the day. She took on our ceremony last minute and was an absolute delight to work with. She respected our wishes for the ceremony, introduced herself to our vendors beforehand, and made our ceremony feel like she was a part of it all along. She also traveled so far out of her way to accommodate us (4 hours round trip). I can’t thank Joannie enough for saving our wedding and making it so special. I highly recommend her for your future wedding.
